This book was created during a period of returning home—both physically and emotionally.

After years spent living abroad, I came back to the place I grew up, carrying a lifetime of experiences, loss, and unanswered questions. What began as an attempt to document my surroundings slowly became something more personal. The photographs turned inward. The writing followed.

The house, the landscape, the quiet moments—they became a way of understanding memory, grief, and healing.

This work is not about a single story. It’s about the feeling of time passing, of holding on and letting go, of trying to make sense of where I’ve been and who I’ve become.
